Shouldn't we let God have his way if he wants people and other animals to be polygamous to ensure the survival of the species?

Goot is right. We should all move to Utah and have several wives, even if it is illegal now.

god is mythical for one and polygamy is for weak minded women and men having control issues.

You dumb idiot, do you really think there is danger of the human race dying off from not being promiscuous enough? Do us all a favor and turn gay so that you will not have children. Last thing we need is for anymore people with your mindset running around.
If you insist on this sort of reasoning, move to utah. There is a religion there, mormonism I think, that promotes polygamy. They get married to several wives, marry their own daughters and have babies with their daughters. Perfect for a twisted person like you.

What makes you think that God WANTED men to be polygamous? He allows a lot of things that are not in His will because He gave us the freedom of our own will.
The Bible says that God’s original intention was for one man to be married to only one woman, “For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife (not wives); and they shall become one flesh (not multiple fleshes)” (Genesis 2:24). We see in Deuteronomy 17:14-20, that the kings were not supposed to multiply wives. This most definitely puts Solomon in direct disobedience against the Lord.

There's no way that the species of homo sapien is going to go extinct. So this is really a moot point. Not that there is a god in the first place.

God never gave permission for polygamy. If he did then can you show me in the bible? Or was it man who invented polygamy. If you look in the bible to all the polygamist, you will see all the problems that they faced as a result. All the problems that could have been avoided if they just listened to God.

Ummmm.... i don't think we have to worry about the survival of the population by using polygamy. Maybe back when man was first emerging from the primordial ooze.... but.... haven't we kinda gotten past that point?

I don't think there's much chance of extinction at this point.

because control sex and you control a man's perspective.
